Summary: "Guy Livingstone; or, 'Thorough'" by George A. Lawrence is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative centers around the titular character, Guy Livingstone, a strong and compelling young man who navigates the trials and tribulations of school life, friendships, and emerging adulthood. Through the eyes of an unnamed narrator, the book explores themes of masculinity, relationships, and the societal expectations faced by young men of the era. The opening of the novel vividly depicts the uncomfortable first days at a large public school, highlighting the emotional struggles and social dynamics among the boys. The protagonist feels isolated and bullied until he is defended by Guy Livingstone, who quickly becomes a figure of admiration among the younger students. The text introduces us to the contrasting personalities at the school, notably Joseph Baines, who is intent on using his newly acquired power to seek revenge on his former tormentors. As Guy Livingstone begins to emerge as a compelling and protective figure, the foundation is laid for exploring his characteristics, relationships, and the adventures that lie ahead. This initial chapter sets the tone for a story that may delve into the complex nature of friendship, competition, and moral dilemmas faced during the formative years of youth.
